lantic City has been the place Of my OBJ
servations--on the sands in the morning
during the bathing hours, where the crowd
of lookers-on is almost as great as the
number of bathers, on the boardwalk in
the afternoon, and at night at the hops at
the hotels.
To be well tanned and Drowned by the
sun is considered fashionable, and no
drawback to beauty, yet one does not
want to have the skin peel of ones nose,
80 some sort of shade hat is worn. or else
large parasol is carried over the head
without other head covering.

THE SINGER.

With spices, wines and -ilken stuffs
The stout ship sailed down,
And with the ship the singer came
Unto the old sea town.
"Peaco to ye!" quOth the sailor folk;
"A month and more have we
Been listening 10 his songs. All, Cod
None sings SO sweet as he.'
Up from the wharyes the salt wind blew,
And hlled the steep highway;
Seven slender plum trees caught the sun
Within court yard gray
out came the daughter of the king;
OH, very fair was She
She was the whitest bOugh a-grow,
30 fair, so fair was SHE!
The singer sang, My love-" he sang,
as like white plum treelh
Then silence fell on house and court;
No other word sang he.
The kings daughter, when she was old,
Sat in a broidored gown,
And spun the fax from her fair fields
oh, IL was sweet In town.
Seven plum trees stood down In the court
Each one was white rs milk;
The kings daughter rose softly there,
Rustling her brOidered SILK,
"Oh, set the wheel away, my maids,
And sing that song to me
The singer sangl" "My love- sang they
SIS like q white plum treel"

In order 70 allay the tumult, Col. Oberly, OF the
civil Service Commission, has kindly come to the
front with sundry additional explanations and
particulars 70 which the public would be at all
entitled at this time, were IL not essential to stop
the stampede. IL seems as IL this sedatiye ought
70 be enectual In insr1ng some rest TO the weared
and worried brains that have been SO foolishly
niled with fear.-Wdshi,iGtOn Post.
II Is perhaps cOndescending In Col Oberly to
vouchsafe these additional explanations to the
scared dogs" of clerks but 1t is not apparent why
they are not entitled" to this enlightenment.
When the Civil Service Commissioners promulgate
new SET OF rules that prominent official,
concerned In their adoption declares as stated In
the Baltimore Sim, were designed TO tweed OUT

Departments; and which rules, also, a department
onlcial In a position 10 know, the san said, esti
mated would IL strictly carried out throw at
least seven-elghths OF the old government en-
poyes out OF their positions, when these rules
were thus construed by those concerned In
their connection, or who were in DO
ation 10 know how they would work
II was quite time for Mr.. Oberly to rise and ex-
plain. and keep on rising and explaining until they
are explained out OF their discreditabe existence
